Description:INTRODUCTION Of all the myths which have come down to us from the East, and of all the creations of Western fancy and belief, the Personality of Evil has had the strongest attraction for the mind of man.

As a character in imaginative literature Lucifer has not his equal in heaven above or on the earth beneath, In contrast to the idea of Good, which is the more exalted in proportion to its freedom from anthropomorphism, the idea of Evil owes to the presence of this element its chief value as a poetic theme. The discrowned arch- angel may have been inferior to St. Michael in military tactics, but he certainly is his superior in matters literary...We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
